Many maps useful to historical and genealogical research are located in the Genealogy Center (Tulsa City-County Library). This is an index to the Genealogy Center’s Map Collection. Records in the database provide the name and a brief description of each map and its location in the Genealogy Center. Two collections make up this database. Maps located in the Map Cabinet are assigned drawer numbers. Maps located in the Bette Riddle Collection are designated with BRC as their location.
All materials located in the Genealogy Center are for in-library use only. The index is still being compiled and records continue to be added to the database. If you do not find the map you seek in the database or have any questions about the Map Collection, please contact the Genealogy Center by telephone, 918.746.5222, or email us at genaskus at tulsalibrary dot org.
